Ata meeting of the 1909 board of 
aldermen Tuesday evening Alderman R. 
E. Hodgkins, who retires after nine 
years of continuous service, was tender- 
ed arising vote of thanks by his col- 
leagues. Mr. Hodgkins spoke feelingly 
in reply, saying that he had enjoyed the 
work and had made many friends. He 
should miss the work, but his interest 
would continue and cause him to follow 
the doings of the City Council closely. 
He said that the experience had been a 
great benefit to him in the study of hu- 
man nature and of municipal affairs. He 
closed by wishing the incoming city gov- 
ernment much success. Alderman 
Hodgkins has certainly done good work 
for Ward 6 and many improvements 
now enjoyed here are due to his especial 
energy and interest. He retires with the 
goodwill of Ward 6. 
Master Herbert Perkins celebrated his 
fourth birthday Wednesday by having 
some twelve of his little friends at his 
home in Central square. They played 
games and had a glorious time. 
Victor Allo’s lecture, concert 
dance, was held as per schedule in 
Neighbors’ hall, Monday evening. More 
than 100 persons were present, despite 
Mr. Allo’s contention, that the occasion 
would wax warm enough to make up for 
the lack of artificial heat in the hall. 
Among those present were a number of 
ladies. 
Jeremiah Donovan, a laborer, who 
had spent much of his time the last few 
years at the Farms, working for various 
contractors, died suddenly Monday. 
About six o’clock, while eating his sup- 
per at his boarding house, Daniel Cough- 
lin’s, off High street, he suddenly threw 
up his hands and expired without a 
sound. He was about 60 years of age 
and the only known relatives are a brother: 
at Revere and another at South Boston. 
The funeral services were held Thursday 
at Beverly, from the undertaking rooms 
of J. F. Desmond & Co., and also from 
the Star of the Sea church.

The Storm at the Farms. 
The Farms suffered alike with other 
places along the shore in last Sunday’s 
blizzard and high tides. Trees and 
shrubbery especially suffered under the 
weight of the snow and wind. West 
Beach was the center of interest and 
many went there to view the effect of the 
storm. ‘The pier received a good - shak- 
ing and will require consideratle repairs. 
The waves undermined many of the 
bathhouses with the result that they are 
now standing, or tilting, at various an- 
oles. The new bulkhead at the Hutch- 
inson estate was about three-quarters de- 
stroyed and about 25 feet of the land in 
the rear was washedaway. ‘The George 
Lee breakwater and land adjoining, and 
alsothat of F. B. Bemis and John T. 
Morse, jr., the latter at Pride’s, was 
damaged. Numerous floats and boats 
that had not been put high enough above 
the extreme high tide were swept away.
